We take our community role very seriously and are committed to being a responsible and engaged corporate partner. We strategically target our philanthropic support to work toward three main goals: enhancing healthcare effectiveness; improving the health and vibrancy of the communities where we live and work; and supporting our employees in their efforts to give back to their local communities.

The most inspiring aspect of our community involvement is working with dozens of innovative non-profit organizations and thousands of community-minded Cardinal Health employees. To each of our non-profit and employee partners, I offer my heartfelt gratitude for allowing us to support you in your many efforts to improve healthcare – and the communities around you.

When we put all their feedback together, some common themes—and common words—shine through. Words like community. Safety. Children. Health. And help. These are the words that remind us of the importance of giving with purpose.
- 3. Grants to improve healthcare efficiency, effectiveness and excellence In 2008, Cardinal Health launched the first and largest private fund of its kind—one that supports hospital programs that enhance quality, reduce costs and improve efficiency. To date, this funding has helped more than 100 hospitals implement measurable, evidence- based practices to improve the way they manage, administer and monitor patient medications, reduce healthcare-associated infections and improve operating room efficiencies. Solutions for Patient Safety As the founding sponsor of and ongoing partner in the Solutions for Patient Safety initiative, Cardinal Health collaborated with the Ohio Hospital Association, the Ohio Children’s Hospital Association, the Ohio Business Roundtable and 25 hospitals across the state, with one common goal: To make Ohio the safest place in the nation for healthcare. Results to date include: • Participating central Ohio hospitals reduced bloodstream Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections by 51%, with an estimated savings of nearly $1.3 million per year. They also reduced central line associated bloodstream infections in intensive care units by more than 50%, equating to an annual savings of $3.1 million. • Participating children’s hospitals reduced adverse drug events by 33% and surgical site infections by half, dramatically improving the quality of care for hundreds of children and saving an estimated $600,000 per year, statewide. • CEOs and board members from all 25 participating hospitals took part in board development programs facilitated by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement. These educational sessions help board leaders understand the critical role they play in creating a culture of safety in the hospitals they support. University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center, Albuquerque, N.M. With funding from the Cardinal Health Foundation, the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center in Albuquerque and 13 other acute care facilities across the state implemented interventions that resulted in a 48% reduction in healthcare- acquired MRSA infections. That translated into an estimated annual savings of $850,000, preventing 127 incidents of MRSA and saving four lives. Between 2008 and 2010, we invested $10 million in programs that will lead to direct and long-lasting improvements in healthcare efficiency, cost-effectiveness and quality. We define that as saving days spent in the hospital and dollars spent on healthcare. But the most important measure of this work is its ability to save patients’lives. dollarsandlives saving We develop and support programs that help healthcare providers implement best practices that can truly transform patient care. 48%reduction in healthcare-acquired MRSA infections statewide days
- 4. “The one word that best describes Boston University’s Pharmacy Leadership Institute is transformative. It was the most empowering, valuable and impactful educational program I’ve ever experienced.” Michelle C. Corrado Pharm.D. System Director of Pharmacy Services Hallmark Health System, Inc., Boston, Mass. “The ASHP Foundation and Cardinal Health Foundation share a commitment to supporting programs that advance pharmacists’ leadership skills, improve medication safety and disseminate best practices so that patients may ultimately be assured they’ll receive the highest-quality care.” Stephen J. Allen, M.S. Executive Vice President and CEO American Society of Health-Systems Pharmacists “By giving patients a safe and easy way to dispose of unused and unneeded medications at local community pharmacies, we’re helping to reduce the abuse and misuse of medication while raising awareness of this major public health and safety issue.” Phil Schneider Senior Consultant, Strategic Programs National Community Pharmacist Association and NCPA Foundation Lifelong learning is crucial to a healthcare provider’s ability to create and implement innovative solutions to our nation’s most pressing healthcare challenges. That’s why we support continuing education for clinicians and recognize those who are improving the way healthcare is delivered. saving days, dollars and lives Supporting clinician education We’ve been proud supporters of the Institute for Healthcare Improvement’s (IHI) 100,000 Lives and 5 Million Lives campaigns, which identified and shared best practices for improving patient safety with thousands of hospitals nationwide. We also provide scholarships to help healthcare leaders attend IHI training programs that teach them how to implement evidence-based practices that improve patient safety. Since 2000, we’ve also partnered with the American Society of Health- System Pharmacists (ASHP) and Boston University to offer the Pharmacy Leadership Institute. More than 280 pharmacists have since graduated from the program, which develops visionary leaders who inspire transformational improvements in the way patient care is delivered. Recognizing healthcare innovations We sponsor the ASHP Award for Excellence in Medication-Use Safety, the only national honor that recognizes collaborative, pharmacist-led initiatives that successfully improve patient safety. Each year’s finalists receive a cash award in honor of their accomplishments. They also share their winning best practices with other hospitals across the nation. We also support the National Community Pharmacist Association’s (NCPA) nationwide prescription drug disposal program. This cutting-edge initiative provides patients with a safe way to dispose of unused and unwanted medications, helping to reduce the likelihood of medication misuse and abuse. North and South Carolina and Virginia Novant Health, a health system primarily operating in North and South Carolina and Virginia, received the Award for Excellence in Medication- Use Safety in 2009. They launched a coordinated patient care project that reduced hospital readmissions by 14% by ensuring patients understood how to take their medications not only when they were in the hospital, but also after they were discharged. Rex Healthcare in Raleigh, N.C., was a finalist for the 2009 award for its‘Stop the Traveling Clot’initiative, which reduced blood clots and resulted in a 12.6% decline in hospital readmissions. reduction in hospital readmissions 14%
- 5. We support programs that meet basic healthcare needs and teach children and at-risk populations skills that will lead to a lifetime of good health. This work also helps improve the cost efficiency of healthcare by helping underserved populations prevent chronic illnesses before they start. McGaw Park, Ill. Because we know that managing serious illnesses and chronic diseases like cancer and diabetes can be complicated and overwhelming, we support organizations like Chicago’s Cancer Wellness Center and HealthReach, Inc. The Cancer Wellness Center links cancer patients and their families with services that support their physical, emotional and psychological needs during and after treatment. HealthReach provides comprehensive diagnostic testing, individualized education, medication therapy and support to help more than 800 patients follow through with chronic disease treatment plans, so they can successfully manage their health. We’re committed to improving the health, wellness and vibrancy of the communities where our employees live and work. So every year, we award grants ranging from $5,000 to $35,000 to non-profit organizations in the five U.S. and four international cities where Cardinal Health has a high concentration of employees. These local grants are focused on three areas: supporting healthy lifestyles, improving health literacy among underserved populations and preventing the abuse and misuse of prescription medications. investing communities Healthcare systems are extremely complex and can be very challenging to navigate. Millions of people have difficulty understanding their medical instructions and insurance agreements, and many don’t understand how to take their medicines properly. That’s why we support programs that teach people how to use the resources and services available to them. For example, we help provide home visits, education and advocacy for individuals with Alzheimer’s disease, cancer and diabetes. We also support outreach, health education and advocacy programs for those who speak English as a second language. 800patients assisted with follow up care “This kind of funding and support plays a critical role in our ability to provide the community with important health information and fund life-saving research that can ensure that one day all babies are born healthy.” Megan Brocato Community Director, March of Dimes Louisville, Ken. “By helping us start new projects, like our Milk Bank, which provides formula and dried milk to young children, Cardinal Health plays an important role in helping us to efficiently help those in our community who have limited resources.” Jose Luis Aguilar C. Director Centro Familiar Ayuda A.C. Juárez, Mexico inour
- 6. Increasing awareness and encouraging action We partnered with The Ohio State University College of Pharmacy to develop an online toolkit that increases public awareness of prescription medication abuse and encourages healthcare providers, community leaders, parents, teens and college students to actively work with local schools and community organizations to prevent it. Go to http://www.cardinalhealth.com/generationrx/ to download the free toolkit and help spread the word about prescription drug safety in your own community. Committed to a healthier, more vibrant hometown As central Ohio is home to our corporate headquarters and more than 10% of our employees, we support long-term capital projects for a variety of the community’s most established and well-respected non-profit organizations. We also support key destination venues that make central Ohio a more vibrant place to live and work. Whether we are helping our local food bank expand its facility to house fresh fruits and vegetables to feed hungry families, or connecting more children with our hometown’s nationally recognized zoo and aquarium, Cardinal Health is committed to helping ensure all central Ohioans have access to food, shelter, the arts and quality care for decades to come. Preventing the abuse and misuse of prescription medication We’re committed to helping to counter these trends by developing and supporting local and national initiatives that educate youth, their parents and the elderly about the dangers of prescription medication abuse and what they can do to prevent it. We also empower our employees and our customers with the information, tools and resources they need to join our efforts to educate their families and communities about this growing public health issue. Working together, our goal is to stop prescription drug abuse before it starts. investing in our communities “We are so proud to partner with the Cardinal Health Foundation to take expert pediatric healthcare to underserved children in our community. Their funding of the Ronald McDonald Care Mobile will make a lasting impact on the health and well-being of thousands of children.” Dee Anders Executive Director Ronald McDonald House Charities of Central Ohio 20,000 children participated in wildlife and conservation outreach programs GenerationPreventing the Misuse and Abuse of Prescription Medications Rx ?Frequently Asked Questions Which types of prescription medications are most commonly abused? The types of medications most commonly abused are prescription painkillers (e.g., OxyContin ®, Vicodin®), sedatives/tranquilizers (e.g., Valium ®, Xanax ®), and stimulants (e.g., Adderall ®, Ritalin ®). Why would the government approve these medications, and why would doctors prescribe them, if they are not safe? Prescription medications used properly under medical supervision have the ability to prevent or cure disease and alleviate symptoms, but any medication also has the potential for harm. That is why they require a prescription, so that a qualified health professional has evaluated the risks and benefits for their use in a specific patient and will monitor the outcomes of their use. Why shouldn’t I use someone else’s prescription medications if I think I have the same condition? Only a qualified health professional can appropriately diagnose disease and evaluate whether or not a specific medication is right for you. Everyone’s condition and health statistics are different, therefore, what is right for one person may not be right for another. What’s wrong with using prescription stimulants to help me think more clearly? Prescription stimulants can be very effective in treating appropriately-diagnosed conditions (e.g., ADHD). However, these types of drugs have potential negative health consequences, especially when used without medical supervision. Furthermore, while they can clearly help a person focus more intently on their work, there is no evidence that they enhance learning. In addition, it is against federal laws to obtain these medications without a prescription. Are non-prescription medications of concern? Any medication has the potential to help us live better lives if used appropriately, but they also have the potential to do harm. Non-prescription medications are no exception and should only be used as directed. The ingredients of some non-prescription medications (e.g., cough & cold medications containing dextromethorphan) are sometimes abused for the feelings they cause, and poison control center calls as well as emergency department visits relating to these products have increased significantly as a result. There’s a reason for the prescription When sharing isn’t caring. Generation Rx – keep your family safe Presenters Name Name Date Thank you for choosing to be a part of the GenerationRx Outreach Program. By now you should have a sense of the program and its objectives – to increase awareness about the dangers of prescription drug abuse and encourage action. It can be as simple as having a conversation with others about this problem. The hope is that you will collaborate with a local pharmacist or other health professional to educate the members of your community. The toolkit includes: • Brochure (to be used to introduce the program to a co-presenter) • PowerPoint slides with talking points • Quiz for the audience • Key messages and resources • A handout containing frequently asked questions • Videos from the Partnership for a Drug-Free America • A commitment card We suggest that you present the brochure to a pharmacist or other health professional you know (or at a pharmacy you currently use) and offer to work with someone on their staff to deliver a short (15-minute) program at a local community gathering such as a meeting of the PTO or PTA, Rotaries, civic associations, faith-based groups, etc. We envision these short programs to include the use of the provided slides. Consider dividing up the slides between you and your co-presenter so that you are both comfortable with the material being presented. Following the presentation, you are encouraged to engage your audience in a brief Q&A/discussion and distribute copies of the handout. Remember, this should be informal. No need to be nervous. Don’t feel like you have to be the ultimate expert. Your co-presenter can provide much of the content support you need. We have also provided resources for your audience (and you) to learn more. The messages are really quite simple: 1. Prescription medications have many positive benefits when used appropriately. 2. Prescription medications are being misused and abused. 3. You can do something about it! The toolkit provides statistics to back-up these messages. You can do this! Our partners at The Ohio State University College of Pharmacy are available to provide support to you if needed and welcome the opportunity to work with you to help our community understand this issue. Don’t hesitate to contact them if you have questions or need assistance in preparing for a presentation. Dr. Kenneth Hale Dr. Nicole Kwiek 614.292.4717 hale.3@osu.edu 614.688.5951 kwiek.1@osu.edu You can make a difference! Unintentional drug poisoning is the second leading cause of accidental death throughout the United States and the leading cause in many states. Using the Generation Rx Outreach Program toolkit and the expertise of a community pharmacist or other health professional, you can raise awareness of this problem and help others understand the catastrophic consequences of misusing or abusing medications.

In fact, prescription medication abuse is the second leading cause of accidental death in the United States. More Americans abuse prescription drugs than cocaine, heroin, hallucinogens and inhalants combined, and an astounding one in five teens abuses a prescription drug at least once in their lifetime.

- 9. The Haiti Earthquake: A coordinated, compassionate response The devastating 2010 earthquake in Haiti that left more than 200,000 people dead and injured is considered one of the worst natural disasters in more than 200 years. When news of the tragedy hit, Cardinal Health was there, donating more than $1 million in emergency medical supplies and hygiene kits to key international relief agencies. Many of these supplies were combined with donations from other organizations to create family survival kits through World Vision. These kits provided a family of five with basic necessities such as shelter, cooking supplies and hygiene supplies for a week. Employee donations to World Vision’s Haiti relief effort exceeded $100,000 and were matched 100% by the Cardinal Health Foundation. $1Min emergency medical supplies We’ve responded to domestic tragedies such as Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the 2008 California wildfires.
